Hi folks,
Here I am again with another mystery gymno, again a garden centre purchase. It's a small plant, not much more than about an inch and a half across, and the flower is comparatively huge! Would be wonderful if anyone could identify it. My uneducated guess is a perhaps a light flowered var of G. bruchii?
Thank you!
Gymnocalycium ID?

Re: Gymnocalycium ID?
Could it be Gymnocalycium calochlorum?

Re: Gymnocalycium ID?
Thank you! That looks like a definite contender. Whatever it is, it's quite determined because that bloom has lasted several weeks now!
